Parameter atmosphere_specific_convective_available_potential_energy
Properties
Name | atmosphere_specific_convective_available_potential_energy |
---|---|
Description | "specific" means per unit mass. Potential energy is the sum of the gravitational potential energy relative to the geoid and the centripetal potential energy. (The geopotential is the specific potential energy.) Convective(ly) available potential energy is often abbreviated as "CAPE". |
